“What are you doing out here?” Daniel whispered.
“Couldn’t bring myself to leave.”
“Why didn’t you sleep in there with me? You did before.”
“That was different. What happened between us then was a mutual thing. This time, you’re reticent, and I do understand why. I won’t take advantage of you.”
“Maybe I want you to.”
Noel sat up. “And maybe I want you to feel comfortable knowing that I’m here for good first. It matters to me, Daniel. How you feel. It nearly killed me to leave you before, and this time, the only thing that could force me to do that again is if you truly don’t want me.”
“I think what happened earlier proves that I do.”
“Sex is easy.”
“No, it’s actually not. Not when it comes to us.” Daniel walked around the couch and surprised Noel when he climbedinto his lap. Noel couldn’t stop his swift grin as he gripped Daniel’s sexy, bare hips. Daniel cupped his cheeks. “Sex with you is intense. More. It’s fucking life-changing.” He paused and took a deep breath. “I’m sorry I couldn’t answer you earlier, and honestly, I still can’t. I don’t know about forever, Noel. But I do know how I’m feeling right now, and waking up alone in that bed made me feel sad. I’ve felt sad for way too long, and I don’t want to feel that way anymore.”
“Then it’s my hope we can work through this so you’ll let me fully back into your life.”
“How about I let you fully back into my bed tonight?” Daniel softly kissed him. “I want you to hold me the rest of the night. Would you want that?”
“I want nothing more.”
Daniel slid off his lap and stood, holding out his hand. Noel took it and followed him back to bed.
“No clothes in my bed,” Daniel ordered as he crawled under the covers, leaving one side down for Noel.
Noel stripped quickly, and when they were up against each other under the covers, he couldn’t stop a moan. All that bare-to-bare skin went to his head. Daniel slid his thigh between Noel’s, causing Noel to hold his breath. He had planned to just hold Daniel, but his body was reacting in a way he couldn’t help.
Daniel chuckled as he burrowed into Noel. “I can feel your hard-on.”
“So much nakedness.”
He chuckled again before he started kissing Noel’s chest. “What do you want? My mouth or my ass? Because if I remember correctly, you couldn’t resist either in the past.”
“I still can’t. But I’d like to be inside you pretty badly right now.”
Daniel let go of him and rolled over onto his stomach. “Lube’s in the drawer on your side. We don’t need condoms anymore. You know what I am.”
Noel’s hand shook when he reached in to grab the lube. He came to his knees between Daniel’s spread legs and hated that he couldn’t see, so he leaned over to flip on the lamp beside the bed.
Then he just stared.
Daniel’s body was svelte, his ass small and firm. Noel placed his hands on Daniel’s cheeks and spread them, gaze zeroing in on his hole. Lust punched him in the gut, and he bent to run his tongue over that puckered entrance.
Daniel’s cry was muffled by the pillow, but he spread his legs more and stuck his ass higher into the air. That welcome was more than Noel could resist, and he groaned as he speared his tongue into Daniel. He hadn’t forgotten how much Daniel loved being eaten out. And he fucking loved doing it. He gave him quick licks and deep plunges, pausing to bite those sexy, round cheeks.
He got Daniel wet and loosened, and by the time he slid one lubed finger inside, Daniel was already close to ready for him. Noel still worked him farther open, slowly adding fingers until he felt it was time. He couldn’t wait anymore. He lubed his dick and pressed the head to Daniel’s entrance, then slowly pushed inside.
“Oh, fuck,” Daniel groaned as he clenched around Noel.
Noel gasped, pulled out and pushed back in. “So good. So, so good,” he breathed as he kept moving his hips. He just wanted to crawl inside this man completely. He kneaded those tight buttocks. “Your ass is perfect.”
“Fuck me harder.”
Noel did just that, punching inside Daniel over and over, his eyes rolling back in his head at all that tight heat. He leaneddown to press his lips to Daniel’s back, then wrapped one hand around Daniel’s shoulder for leverage as he pumped his hips.
Daniel moved underneath him, lifting into each thrust and clenching around him. Waves of pleasure washed over Noel. It felt like coming home. This banshee was his home. He buried his face in Daniel’s back, listening to his cries and gasps. Sweat built on their skin, making everything slick, and he thought he’d lose his mind.
